Ethoxylacetyl oxime ligands [HL, (1) and $H_2L^1$, (3)] react with copper(II) acetate monohydrate yield octahedral and square planar complexes, respectively. The complexes have been postulated due to elemental analyses, IR, UVVis. spectra, magnetic susceptibility, conductivity and ESR spectra. Molar conductance of the complexes in DMF indicates a non-ionic character. The ESR spectra of [$(L)_2Cu(H_2O)_2$], (2) complex at room temperature and 77K are characteristic of an axial symmetry ($d_{x2-y2}$) with covalent bond character and have a large line width typical of dipolar interactions. However, [$(L^1)Cu$], (4) complex in the solid state showed spectra of marked broadening and loss of hyperfine splitting confirming spinexchange interactions between the copper(II) sites. The spectrum of the doped copper(II) complex at room temperature showed super-hyperfine splitting from coordinated nitrogen atoms and it has an axial type ($d_{x2-y2}$) with covalent bond character and an essentially square-planar arrangement around the copper(II) ion. The spectrum of [$(L^1)Cu$], (4) in frozen methanol at 77K was characteristic of the triplet state of a dimer species and the distance found between the two copper(II) centers was calculated and is equal to 4.8 ${\AA}$.

Cobalt(III) complexes with sexidentate ligands, N,N,N',N'-tetrakis(2-amino-ethyl)-1,2-ethanediamine (ten), -1,3-propanediamine (ttn), -1,4-butanediamine (ttmd), -(R,R)-and -(R,S)-2,4-pentanediamine (tptn) were prepared, and the characterization of d-d absorption band on the variation of chelate ring size and conformation of these complexes were studied by means of electronic spectra. The first d-d absorption bands of $[Co(L)]^{3+}$ complexes are shifted to smaller wave numbers in the order. ttn > (R,R)-tptn > ten > ttmd${\simeq}$(R,S)-tptn for (L). The UV, $^{13}C$ NMR, and Circular Dichroism studies indicate that the R,S-tptn ligand of $[Co(R,S-tptn)]^{3+}$ complex coodinates to cobalt(Ⅲ) ion as a sexidentate with one methyl group in axial position.

Monoanionic nickel(Ⅲ) complexes, [Ni(dmbit)2]1- and [Ni(dmbbip)2]1- where dmbit2- and dmbbip2- denote 2-thiobenzo[d]-1,3-dithiole-5,6-dithiolate and 1,2-bis(isopropylthio)benzen-4,5-dithiolate, respectively, have been synthesized by the iodine oxidation of dianionic complexes. In the scanning electron microscopic(SEM) images, these complexes show the well-grown two-dimensional layered structures which are clearly comparable to the dianionic ones with three-dimensional structures. Magnetic susceptibilities of nickel(Ⅲ)complexes are fitted well with the two-dimensional Heisenberg antiferromagnet model of S=1/2 system resulting in the spin-exchange parameters (|J|/k) of 11.4 K and 0.45 K, respectively. The weaker magnetic interaction in [Ni(dmbbip)2]1- is resulted from the bulky isopropyl groups on the periphery of dmbbip ligand. EPR measurements for [Ni(dmbit)2]1- give the signal with axial symmetry and the anisotropic g-values for low-spin nickel(Ⅲ) (g//=2.158, g =2.030,gav=2.074 at 300 K; g//=2.162, g =2.038, gav=2.080 at 77 K). It is therefore concluded that nickel(Ⅱ) is oxidized to nickel(Ⅲ), rather than dmbit2- and dmbbip2- ligands are, by the iodine oxidation. The paramagnetic Ni(Ⅲ) would be located in the axial symmetry(D4h) with the electronic configuration of (dxz2dyz2dz22dxy1dx2-y20).

We identified a bovine $B_{12}$ trafficking chaperone bCblC in Bos taurus that showed 88% amino acid sequence identity with a human homologue. The protein bCblC was purified from E. coli by over-expression of the encoding gene. bCblC bound cyanocobalamin (CNCbl), methylcobalamin (MeCbl) and adenosylcobalamin (AdoCbl) in the base-off states and eliminated the upper axial ligands forming aquo/hydroxocobalamin ($OH_2$/OHCbl) under aerobic conditions. A transition of $OH_2$/OHCbl was induced upon binding to bCblC. Interestingly, bCblC-bound $OH_2$/OHCbl did not react with reduced glutathione (GSH), while the reaction of free$OH_2$/OHCbl with GSH resulted in the formation of glutathionylcobalamin (GSCbl) and glutathione disulfide (GSSG). Furthermore we found that bCblC eliminates the GSH ligand of GSCbl forming $OH_2$/OHCbl. The results demonstrated that bCblC is a $B_{12}$ trafficking chaperone that binds cobalamins and protects $OH_2$/OHCbl from GSH, which could be oxidized to GSSG by free $OH_2$/OHCbl.

The reaction of [$[Ni(L)]Cl_2{\cdot}2H_2O$ (L = 3,14-dimethyl-2,6,13,17-tetraazatricyclo[$14,4,0^{1.18},0^{7.12}$]docosane) with 1,1-cyclohexanediacetic acid ($H_2cda$) yields mononuclear nickel(II) complex, [$Ni(L)(Hcda^-)_2$] (1). This complex has been characterized by X-ray crystallography, electronic absorption, cyclic voltammetry and thermogravimetric analyzer. The crystal structure of 1 exhibits a distorted octahedral geometry with four nitrogen atoms of the macrocycle and two 1,1-cyclohexanediacetate ligands. It crystallizes in the triclinic system P-1 with a = 11.3918(7), b = 12.6196(8), $c=12.8700(8){\AA}$, $V=1579.9(2){\AA}^3$, Z = 2. Electronic spectrum of 1 also reveals a high-spin octahedral environment. Cyclic voltammetry of 1 undergoes one wave of a one-electron transfer corresponding to $Ni^{II}/Ni^{III}$ process. TGA curve for 1 shows three-step weight loss. The electronic spectra, electrochemical and TGA behavior of the complex are significantly affected by the nature of the axial $Hcda^-$ ligand.

A 1D-coordination polymer of $1D-\{Cu({\mu}-picolinato)_2\}$ $\{Hakimi,\;2012\;\sharp73\}_n$ (1), was prepared by the reactions between 2-(2-(pyridin-2-yl)oxazolidin-3-yl)ethanol (AEPC) ligand and $CuCl_2$ or $CuBr_2$. The product was characterized by elemental analysis, UV-Vis, FT-IR spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The X-ray analysis results revealed that the AEPC ligand, after reactions with the copper(II) chloride or bromide, gives the same product - $1D-\{Cu({\mu}-picolinato)_2\}_n$ (1). The coordination modes for various picolinate-based ligands were extracted from the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD). In the crystal structure of 1, the copper atom has a $CuN_2O_4$ environment and octahedral geometry, which is distorted by elongation of the axial bond lengths due to the Jahn-Teller effect.

A novel mononuclear supramolecule of copper(II) has been synthesized with Ippyt ligand (Ippyt=3-(4'-imidazole phenyl)-5-(pyrid-2''-yl)-1,2,4-triazole) (1). Compound 1, namely [$Cu(Ippyt)_2(H_2O)_2$], has been characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, IR spectrum, elemental analysis and thermogravimetric analysis. Structure determination reveals that the elongated-octahedral geometry is formed in the vicinity of the copper (II) atom being coordinated by four nitrogen atoms from two Ippyt ligands occupying the equatorial position and two oxygen atoms from two coordinated water molecules in the axial position, which together form the $N_4O_2$ donor set. Hydrogen bonding interactions between nitrogen and oxygen atoms result in the set up of a supramolecular network architecture. Biological properties including antibacterial activity and superoxide dismutase (SOD) mimetic activity of compound 1 have been investigated by agar diffusion method and the modified Marklund method, respectively. The results indicate that compound 1 exhibits a stronger antibacterial efficiency than the parent ligand and it also has a certain radical-scavenging activity.

Chromium(III) complexes, cis-[Cr([14]-decane)$(HOC _6H _4COO) _2$]$ClO _4$ I and cis-[Cr([14]-decane)(OH) $(OC _6H _4NO _2)$]$ClO _4{\cdot}H _2O$ II ([14]-decane = rac-5,5,7,12,12,14-hexamethyl-1,4,8,11-teraazacyclotetradecane) are synthesized and structurally characterized by a combination of elemental analysis, conductivity, IR and VIS spectroscopy, and X-ray crystallography. The complexes crystallizes in the monoclinic space groups, $C2 _1$/a in I and $P2 _1$/n in II. Analysis of the crystal structure of complex I reveals that central chromium(III) ion has a distorted octahedral coordination environment and two hydrogensalicylato ligands are unidentate to the chromium(III) ion via the carboxyl groups in the cis-position. For monomeric complex I the hydrogensalicylato coordination geometry is as follows: Cr-O(average) = 1.984(3) $\AA$;Cr-N range = 2.105(3)-2.141(4) $\AA$;C(24)-O(4) = 1.286(5) $\AA$;N(2)-Cr-N(4) (equatorial position) = 96.97(15)${^{\circ}}$; N(1)-Cr-N(3) (axial position) = 168.27(15)${^{\circ}}$; O(1)-Cr-O(4) = 85.70(13)${^{\circ}}$. The crystal structure of II has indicated that chromium(III) ion is six-coordinated by four secondary amines of the macrocycle, hydroxide anion and nitrophenolate anion.

A new route to phthalocyanine complexes were developed to synthesize these products by fusion in the absence of solvent. This new method of synthesis without using solvent has advantages over the conventional synthetic methods since there are no risk of explosion and formation of harmful vapor from organic solvent. Reaction of PcFe with axial ligands such as $PcFe(4-VP)_2$[Pc: Phthalocyanine, 4-VP: 4-Vinylpyridine] and $PcFe(VIM)_2$[VIM: 1-Vinylimidazole] afforded powderlike, pure dark greenish blue colored products. The resulted products are soluble in $CH_2Cl_2$ and found to be complexes of the type $PcFeL_2$. Spectral properties were studied with ATR-FTIR and UV/Vis. Thermal and electrical characterization was also performed. Phthalocyanine complexes exhibit useful properties such as UV/Vis blocking, antistatic characteristics and excellent thermal stability and we anticipate various applicability in numerous products.

The axial ligations of nitrogenous bases (pyridine, imidazole, 1-methylimidazole and 2,6-lutidine) to Zn(II)-, Cu(II)-, and Ni(II)-tetrakis(o-chlorophenyl)porphyrin(o-ClTPP), and -tetraphenylporphyrin (TPP) were investigated in organic solvents $(CH_2Cl_2,\;C_6H_6,\;CH_3NO_2,\;(CH_3)_2CO,\;CHCl_3,\;DMF\;and\;DMSO)$ and at 0.01M of ionic strength. The equilibrium constants for the ligation reactions of methalloporphyrins were determined using spectrophotometric method at 15∼35${\circ}C$. In case of M(II)-TPP the equilibrium constants K were considerably larger than those of M(II)-(o-Cl)TPP, depending on steric effect of the porphyrin. The linear relationships between logK of the axial ligation and $pK_a$ of nitrogenous base were shown in M(II)-TPP, but not in M(II)-(o-Cl)TPP. The stabilities of MTPP(L) were controlled by the reation enthalpy and entropy, while those of M(o-Cl)TPP almost by the reaction entropy. The coordinating power of solvent to the methalloporphyrin were also studied in $CHCl_3,\;(CH_3)_2CO$, DMF and DMSO. From those results the solvent effects on the equilibrium constants were discussed.
